That’s the beautiful part. When wintertime rolls around, the gorillas simply freeze to death.
Twenty years from now: “In the land down under, we call these boys grizzly gorillas. You can remember them by the shorthand ‘gg’, cuz that’s all there is to say if you ever meet one.”
Aussie Ice Gorillas when
So Canberra remains fucked?
Some woman tried this in her stomach and the invasive species won.
We just need to bring back the animals that we accidentally wiped out. Tasmanian devils and komodo dragons used to live all over Australia, respawn them. We also used to have thylacines, thylacoleos and land crocodiles which would need a helping hand from mad genetic scientists but I’ll set up a gofundme. Also why not generically engineer the dragons and devils while we’re there?
Sure thing, Umbrella Corp!
Pretty sure we did this as well with canetoads to kill snakes or cane bugs or something.
This is true. What they didnt know is that in their natural habitat, the environmental conditions for cane toad breeding only happen rarely throughout the year. In Australia, the conditions for cane toad breeding occur basically year round. So they constantly are reproducing at an exponential rate compared to what they do in their natural habitat
And because of all that i had to check my shoes in the morning as a kid in Southeast QLD or id step on a canetoad before going to school
Perhaps she’ll die
Same with the Invasive Bullfrogs.
That’s a funny name. I’da called them chazwazzers.
Obligatory Simpsons clip:
How do we obtain a breedable pair of Melmacians, though?
Catbait
Do drones with shotguns count as an invasive species?
Depends, were they programmed to reproduce on their own
it dint make a dent in the rabbit population, i think they had foxes at one point. then they released a virus, myxomatosis virus to try to eradicate the bunnies, but because they breed so fast the selection pressure allowed them to become resistant to the virus. they tried other viruses, its does affect them but some of them are resistant again.
It can actually work, you just have to be good at picking a matchup and have a bit of luck. See for example the cactoblastis moth vs Australia’s prickly pear infestation.
Pity that its very easy to get wrong and you’re more likely to end up with a cane toad or Indian mynah situation.
What if we just introduced wallabies to Europe to be an invasive there and just trade ecosystems? Like crop rotation
Can midwest US have capybaras?
